More interesting.

After 'vi' update and after that 'lib32' is installed ... you can just remove it ... and it has no deps ...



root@pkgbase:~ # pkg info | grep lib32
FreeBSD-clibs-lib32-15.0.b1.20251012072228 Core runtime libraries (32-bit libraries)

root@pkgbase:~ # pkg delete FreeBSD-clibs-lib32-15.0.b1.20251012072228
